Goseong Myeongpa Beach
A northern East Sea beach in Hyeonnae-myeon, Goseong. The Korea Tourism Organization describes its swimming-beach opening as seasonal and coordinated with military authorities; access for a coastal visit and authorized swimming should not be assumed to be the same.
- Address
- 47 Myeongpa 4-gil, Hyeonnae-myeon, Goseong-gun, Gangwon State, South Korea (강원특별자치도 고성군 현내면 명파4길 47)
- Nearby transit
- No current public-transport route or access restrictions were independently verified. Confirm bus services and access requirements before departure.
- Hours
- KTO summer (July–August) guidance only: general beach 06:00–24:00; village-managed beach 06:00–22:00. These are NOT confirmed November hours. The swimming area is opened temporarily in coordination with the military; out-of-season swimming/access is unverified.
The KTO page updated on 19 October 2026 specifies seasonal swimming-beach access. Its summer hours do not establish that swimming, camping or unrestricted access is available in November.
Why go
Enjoy the scenery near the northern end of the East Sea coast and the Myeongpa Stream. Ask Goseong County Tourism (033-680-3356) about current access before travelling, especially outside summer.
